Seven of State’s points came off of Purdue turnovers. If Purdue eliminates the turnovers then this one is over because they are dominating on the glass and shooting just as good as State is from the field and better from the outside.

I heard an announcer once say, what’s the harm in hacking and raking and playing physical with your opponent, the refs can’t call a foul every time down the court. That’s essentially what UVA does.

UVA calls their defense "pack line". I call it "hack line".

On the other hand, if State starts rebounding better and shooting better, they will take the lead.

State won’t rebound better because this is what Purdue does. Purdue is tied for first in the NCAA in rebounding margin.

It would be one thing if this was uncharacteristic for Purdue but it’s what they do, they dominate on the glass.

Ok, but what they did in other games is irrelevant at this point.  And they don't have to beat Purdue on the boards, they just have to do better than 20-12.   I am not saying NCSU will win, they probably won't.  But if they shoot better and rebound better, they can take the lead and have a shot at winning.
